No one wants to see a wedding postponed or canceled, least of all the intended couple. Whether it’s a family emergency, natural disaster, a global pandemic, or simply just unforeseen circumstances. Wedding celebrations do, on occasion, need to be postponed or canceled. Is it disappointing, heartbreaking, devastating, and surreal? Yes, it most certainly is. But remember, getting married is so much more than the party. It’s about the joining of two people’s lives in holy matrimony. Getting married doesn’t require a fancy location or a band, or a party. Love can’t be canceled, and you can’t postpone love. The gathering, the dancing, the celebrating, it can still happen. And it should happen, you deserve it!

Things have gotten tricky for those in the throes of wedding planning, as the spread of Coronavirus has companies shuttering their doors temporarily and people are asked to self-isolate at home. For an industry that thrives on face-to-face interactions, the special events industry has been hit especially hard by this crisis.
It’s no secret that we’re all in the same boat of looking ahead (cautiously so) once the fog of COVID-19 clears. But a lot of you, not unlike myself, may be thinking: how can we really plan our next steps when there’s seemingly no end in sight?

The last several decades have seen a technology boom that has afforded the entrepreneurial-minded the ease and simplicity of running a business from anywhere. Every year, there are new digital products to meet the needs of the self-employed and small business owners — time-tracking apps, digital contracts, internal communications systems, and so on. If there’s a need, there’s a solution.

I see many wedding trends when it comes to music for weddings. I am especially seeing that couples want to have their unique musical tastes on display to represent the soundtrack of their love. I am also seeing less traditional customs like the full wedding party grand entrance, bouquet toss, and garter toss being included in their wedding celebration. On a rare occasion, I have seen the first dance not included either but it is still one of the most important moments of the event. But most couples want a first dance song that unique to them and speaks to their love but I have found five songs that I can see being a part of 2020 weddings. I did my research on my weddingsongs.com where they curate trending music for weddings. I have found my top 5 songs that have been released in the last couple of months.

Growth is a natural process, and when you run a business, you reach a point where you’re ready to break into new markets. For local businesses, this may mean expanding statewide or even to a national level. However, if you already operate on a national level, the next step is to go global.
